Since the war between Russia and Ukraine broke out, Crimea has been a key area of concern to both sides. Because this place once belonged to Ukraine, it was incorporated into Russia after the referendum in 2014. Since then, Ukraine has been holding a grudge and wants to take the opportunity to get its "homeland". Previously, Ukraine has publicly threatened many times to blow up the Crimea Bridge . This bridge is the only land route connecting Russia's mainland and Crimea, and is also an important road for the Russian army's logistics supply, so the Russian army has also arranged heavy troops to defend here.
And just recently, Wu Jun did not make a joke, it seemed that he was really going to attack Daqiao!
According to media reports, on the night of August 18 local time, a violent explosion suddenly came from the Crimea Bridge. According to the video leaked, an object suspected to be missile cut through the night sky and flew over the Crimea Bridge. In addition, the Crimean leaders have also confirmed that a big explosion occurred around the bridge on the evening of the 18th, and Kerch City immediately activated the air defense missile system. Thankfully, the bridge is still safe at present.
Combined with some recent events, it can be speculated that this incident was done by the Ukrainian army.
Recently, the Crimea region has been very unstable. In the past week, three explosions have occurred in Crimea. includes the Russian Black Sea Fleet Command, as well as the Russian military airport and the ammunition depot, . The locations of these explosions are very sensitive, and are all located in the Russian military's military base . Although the Ukrainian side has not officially admitted to being related to these explosions, some senior Ukrainian officials have also revealed that these things were done by Ukraine.
And just recently, the consultant of Zelensky also once again emphasized that the Crimean Bridge is the "legal target" of the Ukrainian army.
In addition, the Ukrainian Defense Minister also told the media that Washington has currently allowed US weapons to attack Donbass , Crimea and other places. Previously, when the United States aided Ukraine's " Himas " and other weapons, it emphasized that the Ukrainian army could not be used to attack Russia's mainland, but now the United States publicly supports the Ukrainian army to attack Crimea. It can be said that Ukrainian's attack on Crimea has obtained the "authorization" of the United States. The implication is to regard Crimea as part of Ukraine.
According to analysis, these attacks carried out by the Ukrainian army on Crimea were, on the one hand, to create conditions for regaining the west bank of the Dnieper River; on the other hand, to have a public opinion war with Russia, which can not only enhance its morale, but also allow the West to see that Ukraine can still launch a strike against Russia and obtain chips to ask for weapons from the West. After all, for a long time in the past, many Western countries have lost their trust in Ukraine, and many European countries, including Britain, France and Germany, have stopped aiding the Ukrainian army.
But all this comes at a price. Putin's adviser has previously issued a warning: Once the Crimea Bridge is hit, Kiev will face a "judgment day". Russia also issued a warning for the successive "accidents" that occurred in Crimea, believing that this is the trend of war spreading to "Russia's mainland". Then if the Ukrainian army really attacked the Crimean Bridge, then Kiev is likely to become the direct target of the Russian army's attack.
Ukraine is still constantly testing Russia's bottom line, but Russia cannot remain indifferent. After all, the Crimea Bridge is related to the survival of nearly 2 million people on this peninsula, and the Russian army will definitely guard it heavily. Once Ukraine cannot hold back and take action, the conflict will escalate again.
